I was reading the latest June 2003 import tuner and came across the Hyper Ground System in their turning pages. Under pros they said it had become a favorite product for them since it can make a lot of power and is pretty affordable comparted to other aftermarket products. However the Dyno showed absolutely no HP gain. And for cons they said it was the first time they were unable to produce a lot of power with the wires.

Does anybody have previous issues of this mag where they do produce a lot of power with grounding wires? Anybody have these? Know someone who does? Heard about them?

it makes more sense to me to buy some 8 guage wire and some connectors and do a daisy chain from the negative battery terminal, cost me $10 instead of $100 and I noticed increased throttle response, and an overall smoother torque curve, as far as horsepower goes i dunno
